All India Youth Federation (AIYF) has stated that the new National Education Policy (NEP) is against Social justice.
A statement said that the decision of the Modi Government to implement the new Education Policy is to undermine the democracy of Parliament itself.
“This NEP is against the social justice. The National Education policy is indirectly Varnshrama system of education nd will take our country hundred years back”, the statement by AIYD said adding that the three language policy adds burden to the students.
It added that imposition of any language on any ethnic people is not acceptable and denounces for promoting Sanskrit like anything in this policy.
The statement further said that public exam for the classes of 3rd , 5th and 8th will be more stressful to the students. In the name of promoting technical education, this policy is undermining the other streams like arts and literature. Virtual education system will be promoted in collaboration with foreign universities. Stressing exam for higher education is injustice to the rural students and will reduce the Gross Enrolment Ratio. The policy decisions will lead to total privatization of education which will further alienate the poor and rural students and will reduce gross enrolment ratio. There is no proper measures to impact skill based education. The government’s idea to merge institutions with less than 3000 students poses a big threat. When world is going towards specialization in education, it is foolishness to abolish single courses and promote only multi-subject institutions.
The statement said that the education is fully taken away from the state government which is anti-federal.
